The White House has warned the Syrian regime it would “pay a heavy price” for using chemical weapons after preparations for a possible attack were observed at a regime air base allegedly involved in a sarin attack in April. Reporters traveling in Germany with the US defence secretary, James Mattis, were told that the Pentagon was prepared to take action after activity was seen at the Shayrat base similar to the pattern that preceded the April gas attack on Khan Sheikhoun, which killed at least 80 people. That incident prompted a US missile strike on the base, although the strike did not seriously impair its operations. Pentagon spokesman Cpt Jeff Davis said that the activity at the base had taken place in “the past day or two”. “This involved specific aircraft in a specific hangar, both of which we know to be associated with chemical weapons use,” he told Reuters. In a bluntly worded statement released late on Monday night, the White House said: “The United States has identified potential preparations for another chemical weapons attack by the Assad regime that would likely result in the mass murder of civilians, including innocent children. Remember the last major staged Syria gas attack in Idlib, Syria a few months ago that happened after Senator McCain paid a strange secret visit to Syria? Well it looks like the Trump administration just got word of another possible Syria staged gas attack that was about to take place, and it looks like the Trump White House issuing this warning last night just prevented it. ​ Remember that the Deep State is very involved in Syria trying to push for a war between Russia and America, and what the White House did last night possibly prevented a Deep State attempt to push Russia and America into war in Syria. Yes the White House blamed Assad for this, but I'm sure Trump knew this attack was being prepared by the Deep State operatives heavily involved with terrorist groups in Syria like Al Nusra and ISIS. You can be sure the Deep State isn't happy with this warning from the White House, but Trump just prevented a Deep State plot in Syria like the one we saw in Idlib, Syria a few months back.
